Title: 4pin XLR --> 3pin XLR Connector?
Post by: cregan on January 28, 2004, 02:25:08 PM

Anybody know if there are connectors to go from 4pin XLR to 3pin XLR? I'm putting a project studio together and the talkback mic I got is 4pin, while all the XLR inputs on my mixer are three. Anyway around this? Perhaps the cable making masters could shed some light here...

just leave one of the pins on the 4pin unused and only use pins 1,2,3 :-) problem solved!
